Deal  Island,  Maryland


     During the last week in August, it was rainy every day. As the Labor Day weekend began the rain prevailed. On Monday, Mother Nature decided to ease up. As the morning began, the sky was dull and gray, but no raindrops were falling. I was provided the opportunity to be aboard the "Roslyn Ann" owned and operated by Captain Dan Webster. What a beautiful sight as the skipjacks were skillfully sailed by their experienced captains. It was poetry in motion!
